Love him. Also a big player on the "Dazed & Confused" soundtrack





Hate to date myself, but D&C really captures HS in Texas in the 70s

---

Ive never seen a movie that portrays HS accurately, but having said that D&C is an unassailable Texas classic, along with Varsity Blues which also has a good soundtrack.

---

Very Accurate. Certainly different from the Christain school upbringing,

One of the backlashes of the Vietnam war was "if you can kill an 18-year-old you can't deny him a drink" The drinking age in Texas from the mid-70s to the very early 80s was 18. I was a teen then. Good times.

A sub-plot of the movie is the hazing of incoming FR. Did not really happen at my HS. Much like American Graffiti updated with much more beer & weed. Many big names early work there Rene Zelwinger, Ben Afflick, and M McConaughey.

---

Thats what Im referring to, wholly inaccurate. Our seniors didnt give a sht about incoming freshmen. They just wanted to play Halo2 and smoke a bowl before they went off to college.

Bullying at my HS was done on a more 1 on 1 level than anything Ive ever seen depicted on film, and it was usually verbal and very rarely physical.

---

The hazing crap just could have been left out, still very enjoyable even with it. Not a huge player. The accuracy comes from the feel or vibe of the flick -

Also from Linklater is "Everybody Want Some" It also is really good. That is the follow-up to D&C but no carryover characters. It takes place 4 years later and is a snapshot of early 80s Texas college.

Trivia - went to BU, and actor Jonathan Banks played the coach. Banks is also the creature in the horror flick "Jeepers Creepers"

Went my Freshman year at West HS. We definitely had bullying. My worst was a few dogpiles with pulling of leg hair. My cousin was a senior and he looked out for me.

The real ass kicking happened to the stoners. That was brutal and humiliating stuff.

Redneck city rampage. I felt fortunate to not get hurt that year. But I took it with defiance and it seemed to actually garner me some respect. Those who cowered got it worse.

All the artists behind "The Voice" in this video are great talents...Including James Burton..one of the few humanoids whose fingers can make a guitar sound almost like a banjo..The entire film "Black and White Night" is an amzingly entertaining work..

That's a Fender P-Bass, sunburst with blk pick guard.
Exquisite.

That white guitar is a Gretsch, those aren't exactly common now.

Yep


Interesting, don't remember the exact source ..... most bands the drummer sets the beat and the band follows him. The Stones follow Keith Richards.
